Jerry Sloan could reunite with the Jazz organization in an undetermined role with the team.

Sloan "didn't say" whether or not an offer was made to him and did not get into specifics as to what capacity he might return in, but it's an interesting footnote if nothing else. GM Dennis Lindsey said "no comment" when asked about Sloan's potential return. It's worth noting that Sloan has been "rubbing shoulders with Jazz management more often." Mon, Jun 3, 2013 08:31:00 AM

Jerry Sloan had some interest in the Clippers, but "he appears to have backed away from trying to land the job," according to the Los Angeles Times.

Sloan's representatives reportedly reached out to the Clippers about the opening, but it sounds as if the talks never got very far. We don't consider him a serious candidate, but it's obvious Sloan is very much willing to coach again if the right opportunity presents itself. Fri, May 31, 2013 09:47:00 AM

Jerry Sloan will not take the head coaching job with the Milwaukee Bucks, according to NBA.com's David Aldridge.

It's not a surprise for one of the best coaches in the history of the game. The 71-year-old Sloan is interested in coaching again, but feels that the Bucks are not the right fit. The Bucks will shift their focus to Nate McMillan, Kelvin Sampson, J.B. Bickerstaff or possibly Steve Clifford to fill their coaching void. Thu, May 16, 2013 07:31:00 PM

Jazz GM Dennis Lindsey believes that Rodney Hood "has the potential to be in that 18 points per game range."

"We have to let Rodney become the offensive wing we know he can be," Lindsey said. "We didn't want to bring in anyone who could get in the way of Donovan [Mitchell], Dante [Exum] and Rodney. We want them to develop." Hood's always had the talent, but injuries and inconsistent play have really held him back. Hood had a 28.1 usage rate with Gordon Hayward off the floor last season (20.1 with Hayward on the floor) and could potentially be Utah's No. 1 option on offense in his age-24 season, so all signs point to a career year.

Alec Burks (knee) stated during his exit interview that he'll work on getting his explosion back during the offseason.

Burks' season was yet again derailed by injuries this year, and he didn't play a minute during the playoffs after undergoing a PRP treatment to his left knee. Over the past three seasons, Burks has only managed to suit up for a total of 100 games, and simply put, he won't be worth drafting in most leagues next season.
